View MoreDaniel’s Pov “Can we at least talk before going to the orphanage?” Liliana pleaded.“There’s no time Liliana, I can’t explain anything to you right now.” I didn’t want to entertain any talks. All I just want to do is to adopt a child. Liliana was wondering what came over me that I suddenly want to adopt a child.“But you should have told me this ahead so that we can both plan properly on how to adopt. Do you even know the sex of the child you wish to adopt?” Liliana asked me but little did she know that I already know the gender that I plan to adopt.“Liliana I don’t like you questioning me and besides it’s not like you are of any use to me, I just want you to come along with me so that the orphanage will know that the child is important to us.“I’m human as well, Daniel. You didn’t tell me anything about this before now, which I find very sad. It's obvious you don’t care about how I feel because you don’t even know if I’m ready to become a mother or not. You’re just being so selfish
Daniel’s Pov“I’ve been willing to tell you this for a while now but I wanted you to bring it up yourself so that I won’t make you feel uncomfortable” Hope said. “Now that I think of it, adopting a child is better and I’ll adopt a male child so that I can give him a good training and make sure he can run the company in my absence”“You just have to adopt a baby and make sure that you give him the best” I went into deep thought immediately, I imagined having a son that will call me father. “Why didn’t you say this to me? I would have adopted a child a long time ago rather than take this long” “I told you that already, all you need to do now is go to an orphanage…” Hope was still speaking when I stood up from the chair I was sitting on. “Where are you going?” Hope asked because we weren’t done talking. “I need to go and speak to Liliana about this so that we can go to the orphanage together since they will be needing our signatures” Hope was shocked she didn’t expect me to adopt imme
Writer’s Pov Daniel was in the garden sitting down under the canopy. He got a notification on his phone and he immediately opened the message and it was his friend that sent him an online invitation. “An invitation?” He muttered to himself. He reads through it and his friend is inviting him to his daughter’s birthday party. Daniel was happy for his friend but at the same time devastated because this is his friend's second child and he’s yet to even have one child. His medical reports always say that he can’t get a woman pregnant. “Am I going to remain fatherless till I die? So I can’t have a child of my own? A child that will call me daddy” Daniel thought himself. Just yesterday he was told that his employees who got married a year ago gave birth to a set of twins. He was in deep thoughts and didn’t even realise that Hope was standing in front of him, she called his name but he obviously didn’t hear her so she had to tap him by his shoulder. “Oh mom” he said when he realised
Writer’s Pov You are not going to revisit any conversation so it's better you accept it now and don’t be delusional” Hope said to Liliana. Liliana who was already leaving heard her and turned, rolled her eyes at her and then left. “You can stare at me all you want but it won’t change anything Daniel has spoken and that’s final”“Such a nuisance, who does she think she is that I can’t tame. I’m a bit laid back because of her father but if she pushes me any further I’ll be left with no other option” “I know right, but you shouldn’t let that be a problem she can be tamed and I honestly like how you handle this now” “She knows that it’s impossible for me to allow her to go see her friend while she’s under my roof. I gave her the opportunity the first time and she misused it so there’s no second time because who knows what will do the second time ” Hope picked up her glass of champagne and a lot more champagne into her glass, she crossed her legs and sipped the champagne with smiles a
Writer’s Pov Liliana was startled when she heard Daniel’s voice “Oh my goodness I thought they didn’t see me” she muttered to herself.She was dragging her feet as she didn’t want to go and meet Daniel and Hope. “But why is he even angry though? Don’t I have the right to go out” she thought to herself as she brazen up. “They can say whatever they like. I don't care, after all I had a good time,” she smiled. “Did I just see her smile?” Hope asked Daniel curiously because there was no good reason for Liliana to be smiling. “Why is she even smiling?” “I don’t blame her, I think she still has reasons to smile for now so I need to teach her a lesson before she understands” Daniel said.“Hi Daniel” she greeted. “And why are you greeting Daniel alone? Are you blind that you can’t see me sitting here?” Hope asked angrily because she felt insulted that Liliana didn’t greet her.Daniel was staring at her so angrily and just wanted to give her a slap that she’ll always live to remember just
Daniel’s Pov “Will you calm down? And don’t raise your voice at me” Hope said to me strictly.“Please I’m not in for this right now. I'm pissed, if you are looking for someone to scold then leave” I was obviously pissed off and she wasn’t of any help.“So you are asking me to leave your presence?” She asked me with a sad look on her face. She doesn’t like it when I speak rudely to her but sometimes she pushes me too hard and I just have to speak to her harshly.“I didn’t ask you to leave but if you want to leave then it’s fine” it won’t be a bad idea for her to leave because she wasn’t doing anything for me except to get me more upset by trying to scold me.“I’ve told you this several times, I don’t like it when you try to scold me. I’m not one to be scolded and you being my mom doesn’t even give you the right to do that” I said to her with an upset look on my face.“I know you are upset and just trying to transfer your aggression on me, so I’ll just ignore what you said” I ignored
Daniel’s Pov“Did you call her?” Hope asked me. “Why would you even ask me such stupid question? You of all people should know that I can’t do such” “I’m just asking because who will possibly take your phone and call Kaylee except for you. And I don’t think Liliana would do such because she doesn’t even have access to your phone” “Liliana doesn’t even know the password to my phone so she can’t be the one” I was so confused because that day I was so drunk and I don’t even remember anything that happened that day.“Then you are the one that called her because I didn’t” Hope concluded. “I just told you that I didn't, so don't piss me off by saying I did”“I can’t even remember anything that happened that day in as much as I try to remember” I placed my hand on my head and was trying so hard to recollect what happened that day. The face of the waitress flashes through my memory.“The funny thing is that she even picked the call. She must be foolish to think that I will call her” I’ve al
Daniel Pov“When I got downstairs last night I was told by one of the maids that you have already had your dinner in your room” Hope said to me.“Yes that’s true” I was going through my phone just to see if I got any message or mail even though I wasn’t expecting any. “I thought you might come downstairs after eating your dinner but you didn’t.“I also thought so but I didn’t even know when it would be so late and I just ended up sleeping off” Hope looked disappointed because she waited for me.“Oh you were probably tired and you needed to rest so I understand now because I was upset that you didn't even come to check on your mother?”“Were you actually waiting for me? I asked the maid when I came back and u was told that you were in your room so I didn’t want you home and disturb you” I explained.“I honestly thought you were with Liliana that’s why you didn’t bother checking on me” Hope confessed. “Liliana?” I asked with a confused look on my face because Liliana wasn’t even in the
Daniel’s Pov I just got back from work and was told that Liliana wasn’t back from her friend’s place.I noticed that her car wasn’t in the garage and I asked the security why her car wasn’t there and he told me that Liliana wasn’t back yet.“Maybe she’s yet to know what I can do to her” I thought to myself because she must have the mindset that I can’t do nothing to her that’s why she decides to come at her own convenient time.I went inside the house and pretended like I didn't know that she wasn’t back home yet.“Where is my mother?” I asked the maid that greeted me immediately when I got inside. “Your mom is in her room sir” she replied politely. “Okay” I was about to go to my room to freshen up before having any conversation with my mom.“When will dinner be ready?” I asked the maid. “Soon sir” she replied to me politely because she didn't want me to scold her. “Soon when? I want to get an accurate time, so in how many minutes will it be ready?” I asked because I want her to be
I stared at the huge vase in front of me, currently being held up by two people. They'd been holding it for quite some time now, and honestly, a tiny part of me was beginning to feel sorry for them. Why? Because the case was damn heavy. But even at that, I couldn't bring myself to drop it off at any corner of the room. I needed to find the right spot to keep it because everything had to be perfect. “Could you move it to the left please?” Amidst the busy background of the living room, they shuffled to the left, before waiting for my verdict. “No, take it to the right.” It still didn't fit any of those places and a small frown made its way to my lips. After thinking for a couple of seconds, I finally decided.“Just leave it where it is.” The duo heaved a sigh of relief as they dropped the vase to the ground. I had no idea why I hadn't noticed it before, but it looked perfect in its new position. “Can you two check on the refreshments please?” With a nod and bright smiles on their fac
